Live Oysters Prat-Ar-Coum La Royale

Presented as the cream of the crop of the PRAT-AR-COUM production, La Royale appears to be a majestic oyster.

Born from the catch of natural spats in the Roadstead of Brest (a large bay in the Finistere, France), those Creuses Speciales Oysters have been raised for at least 3 years, in the sea floor of the Aber Wrac’h, at the bottom end of Brittany, in an exceptional oysters park named “Le Grand Parc”. This plot is the perfect one for farming and refining the Royale, the result of the oyster farmer’s talent and the sweet harmony of the rich natural environment, between heaven and the bright blue sea of the Breton ocean.

With a luxuriant meat rate and a unique long finish, these jewels of the sea are a combination of sweetness and liveliness, salty, with a slight hazelnut aftertaste. The traditional way of working, strictly protected origin, and necessarily limited production justify the designation “La Royale” and Yvon Madec’s signature on this PRAT-ARCOUM oyster selection.

How to serve an oyster?

Start by sorting through your oysters, they all should be tightly closed. Those that are open and will not close when tapped on a hard surface need to be discarded. Open them following the following video tutorials. Remove the first water juice just after the opening which is only composed of seawater. The oyster will recreate a second one much more flavourful.  Serve the oysters immediately. Putting them on an ice bed would hide some flavors.
